Cons: Lots of red eye, slightly confusing menus, high ISO shots are grainier than expected

Cons: Bulky, Memory Stick media

Pros: Picture quality, large screen, bargain price, Carl Zeiss lens
Cons: Memory Stick not included, On-Screen menu sometimes not intuitive

I was walking through Best Buy when I noticed a special offer on the Sony Cybershot DSC-W80. $179 instead of $279. Now THAT'S a low price, I thought. Especially when you notice the big advertised features: 7.2 Megapixels and a Carl Zeiss lens. I am no ...

Pros: The photos are vividly colorful, so not only are your subjects smiling, so are you.
Cons: I have not found one yet.

Cons: too many control dials and buttons on the back

Cons: Proprietary battery, expensive memory stick.

The Sony DSC-W80 is our first digital camera, bought after a lot of research. We had narrowed the field, but when I tried the other cameras, they were difficult to use. We wanted some basic features, macro, fairly fast power up and shot-to-shot speed, in ...

Pros: Sleek, great quality photos, durable, easy to use, takes great video
Cons: Flash sometimes takes too long or flashes too many times
